that's what the romney campaign has been pushing. does ryan underline that the ticket is basically hiding their true beliefs and true numbers. if either one of those does that it carries on the story line. otherwise it's fodder for a couple of days and disappears. >> john, there's a generation gap between the vice president and the congressman. how do you think that will affect the tone of the debate if at all? >> reporter: well, it will be an interesting thing to watch. you can affect it in terms of tone. remember when geraldine ferraro debated bush and snapped back at him on foreign policy. there could be a situation where joe biden can look a little, you know, look sonny and that would end up being a gap. other than that younger voters are with president obama so not a big electoral impact. >> if you go inside our cbs "new york times" poll we see that myrle has a lead in three battleground states over president obama on the question of being a strong leader. how worrisome is that for the obama campaign? >> reporter: that's a probl
